Microsoft will host Build 2016 conference from March 30 to April 1, 2016

On Friday, software giant Microsoft announced the date and venue of its Build 2016 developer conference. At the premier Build conference, which Microsoft holds annually, the company announces its new product launches and important software upgrades.

Announcing the timing and place of its next-year Build conference, Microsoft said that it will host the three-day Build 2016 event from Wednesday, March 30, 2016, to Friday, April 1, 2016. The conference will be held at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, California. Microsoft has been using the same venue for its Build events for the last three years.

Microsoft has not yet kicked off the registrations for the Build 2016 conference. However, it is being speculated that if the timeline used by the company for Build 2016 is the same as that used for the Build 2015 event, it will likely open sign-ups for the event in late December, on the Build conference website.

It is also being speculated that the opening keynote for the Build 2016 developer conference on March 30 will almost certainly be live-streamed by Microsoft. During the keynote address, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella and the company’s other high-profile executives will share the stage to hype new developer opportunities.

At the Build 2016 event, Microsoft will likely talk about the next big Windows 10 update - codenamed Redstone – along with Universal Windows Apps, HoloLens, Azure and Visual Studio.
